Since i don't have a windshield on my CB yet,yes sometimes i get whacked pretty good,bumblebees etc.,once the windshield goes on that problem will be non-existent ,as it was on my recently traded on the CB Vulcan cruiser.The sportster has a windshield and no bug in the face problems with it either.Carry a full face helmet in case i get caught in a major rain storm or for some strange reason end up on the interstate in heavy rush hour traffic,not likely,try to avoid major highways.Worst problem ever was wasp or hornet that went up the sleeve of my leather jacket and kept stinging until i got stopped and got the jacket off,never did see which particular bug it was.Couple days later left work and went to emer room,got a shot of antibiotics and a prescript,doc said if arm was any worse they would have admitted me and done 24 hour IV antibiotics,secondary bacterial infection from the sting.Next year another up the sleeve sting,went to the doc and got preventative antibiotic prescript,no problem,now i ride in a t-shirt,unless it's too cold for bugs.
